During future overhauls, monitor the following SSH inlet tubes for further wall loss: Assembly/Tube(UT Result) A9/2F(0.516) A16/2F(0.504) A23/1F(0.539) A24/1F(0.530) A25/1F(0.529) A25/3F(0.490) A26/1F(0.537) A32/4F(0.528) Currently, the tubing is within 76% to 85% of MWT as UT verified. Although this threshold is shield criteria, shielding is not recommended. Given the temperatures at this location, the shields are likely to degrade at a much higher rate from thermal fatigue.

General location is Superheater Secondary Inlet, Leading Edge. Elevation: 143' LTOH Indications

The IK/IR # is IK-7/8 Material: 1.028 ID x .611" MWT x SA-213T22 Coal Ash Corrosion Indications

Visual indications of LTOH (long-term overheat) and/or coal ash corrosion were identified on the leading edge of the SSH inlet component. The indications were most prevalent on tubes 2F through 4F at elevation 143'0" on assemblies 5 through 38. It is recommended that three (3) tube samples be removed for a metallurgical analysis condition assessment to verify the indications. Coal-Ash Corrosion High temperature coal ash corrosion can occur at locations in superheaters that: (1) Have tube surface metal temperatures between l000F (593C) and 1300F (704C). Maximum corrosion rates occur at 1200F (6490C). High metal temperatures are likely to occur in tubes that surround a radiant cavity, are exposed to radiant heat, or contain the hottest steam prior to leaving the flue gas enclosure. (2) Have slag type corrosive ash deposits that are strongly bonded to the tube. Coal ash corrosion is caused by the formation of complex alkali-iron

trisulfates in the ash deposits when the tube metal temperature is between 1000F (5930C) and 1300F (7O4C). Certain coals contain constituents, which form ash deposits that are corrosive in the molten form. The corrosion becomes a significant concern when the wall thickness reduces rapidly. The root cause of coal ash corrosion can be verified by determining the corrosiveness of the coal ash and by measuring the tube metal temperature under the ash deposit. Coals with chloride content of less than 0.2% and sulfur content of less than 3.0% have not produced significant corrosion rates. Temporary thermocouples on the tube surface can show whether the metal temperatures are within the range to produce a molten form of deposit. Combustion ash deposits should be removed for chemical and melting point analysis. Long Term Overheat (High Temperature Creep) The external tube surface may have a thick hard oxide scale which could have an alligator hide appearance. High temperature creep (LTOH) occurs from a relatively continuous extended period of slight overheating above the design metal temperature, a slowly increasing level of temperature or stresses, or from the accumulation of periods of excessive overheating. Wall thickness measurements are necessary to verify that stress levels have not increased due to erosion or corrosion.

An alternative to removing tube samples which are believed to be affected from LTOH is oxide thickness testing. Remaining life of tubing can be predicted by measuring the thickness of the internal oxides on the ID of the tube.

Repair #: 16-a Record:# 51 Action: PLANNED REPLACEMENT OF DMW-P3 Priority #: 3 Inspector: Smith J. General location is Superheater Secondary Inlet, Trailing Side. Elevation: 171'

It is recommended that a 5 year plan be implemented to replace all DMW's within the SSH Inlet at elevation 171'0" if in fact, the DMW's are original tubing. Replace the DMW's using shop fabricated safe ends with inconnel welds. DMW's are present on tubes 3R through 10R of assemblies 1 through 56. A total of 448 safe ends will be required; determine a percentage of tubes to be replaced each planned overhaul. Material is as follows SA-213 T22 x 2.25" OD x 0.506" MWT SA-213 TP304H x 1.875" OD x 0.295 MWT

Tube sampling and NDE methods should be applied to assess weld condition and to substantiate DMW replacement.
